What makes you most happy at work?Opportunities to see my colleagues in person (very, very rare).
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?People are intelligent and professional.
What do you like best about the leadership team?They are nice, intelligent people. The unrelenting growth mindset is frustrating when it comes at the expense of meaningful improvement to existing issues.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?Despite being a contractor, there is no ability to negotiate because contractors are dependent on QS for their full-time income. Inability to be supported in starting a family will likely be the reason I leave. It feels cruel.
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?Customers hate QS. They only work with us because they have to.
What needs to change to make the company culture better?Lost key industry leaders over past 5 years, and replaced them with career mediocre people who dont know the industry or know how to manage and lead.
